Welcome to the forum, anomaly! I cruised the forum for a couple of weeks before I got mine and it really helped me hit the ground runnin! Some new owners try to do a motherload of meat on the first go, thats setting yourself up for a let down. Get to know your cook times vs. load a little bit. A 10 or 15 degree drop in outside temp will effect the cook times you thought you knew. Nothing worse than looking at a house
full of starving people! Yer gonna luv it!
